I was so sorry to hear about Mike’s passing. I knew him well from our years in Worcester and UMass. I know he will be greatly missed by his family and many friends. Judy (Levine) Leventhal

I have just learned of Mike's passing and want to express my deep sadness upon receiving this news. My condolences to Carolyn and the boys. Mike and I go back to high school when we became friends and teammates on the Classical Tennis team. Mike was a character with a great sense of humor even as a teenager. Jeff Burack, Mike and myself played poker together, played tennis at Newton Square in Worcester, laughed a lot and had a great childhood. We followed each others paths through college and as we settled into adulthood in different parts of the country lost the continuity of our early relationship. More recently Mike connected by phone to relive some of the old days. I suspected Mike's health played into these calls and I loved hearing from him. Since his funeral was streamed I was able to watch and listen and loved hearing the kids talk about their Dad and how money conscious he was even though he loved to gamble and how comical he could be. Dial back 65 years and you have the exact same person. The world is a better place having had Mike in it. I am glad his legacy is perpetuated by his sons. Mike will be missed by all that knew him. The Good Lord better be ready to laugh. May Mike rest in peace!

This is Dave Tuley of ViewFromVegas.com ... the Legendary tpking share his Legendary Math Model with my community of sports bettors in the early 2010s if I'm remembering correctly and we did a College Bowl Podcast together for several years on his and Carolyn's annual December trips to Vegas. He was as generous with his time as he was with his LMM and he is already greatly missed. I've shared the sad news of his passing with my VFV Forums members and several have shared their memories there and hopefully they see the link there and come here as well. R.I.P.

I will never forget the TP King.  My long time patient who never let me forget how beautiful Carolyn was and how fate brought them together one summer day under a Tree at Harvard yard;) His big, no nonsense personality will be greatly missed at Pyramid 🙏🏻❤️. My deepest condolences Carolyn
